The Anthropo Scene Podcast
A podcast exploring biology, ecology, and introduced and invasive species around the world. We are interested in super neat science about nature, and how humans interact with the nature, wildlife, and the rest of our environment.
We take a serious approach to research, and a less serious approach to the delivery, so we can all have a bit more fun along the way.
In loving memory of Nicholas McCarney.

Today we explore an invasive tree species that is also an extremely economically important tree in places where it is invasive, and has even become culturally important in some places! Explore this socioeconomic and ecological issue with us via a case study in the Ecuadorian Andes.

Statement correction: Kirstynn states that bananas are INVASIVE in Ecuador when they are really just NON-NATIVE.
